An Unexpected meeting at An Unexpected Place
Maya believed love would save her. Instead, it shattered her, rebuilt her, and asked her to survive the wreckage. When Maya travels from Vizag to Hyderabad to surprise her boyfriend, she walks straight into betrayal-one moment that rips her faith in love apart. Heartbroken and afraid of returning home, she chooses to stay back, rebuild herself, and start a new life from nothing. A new job. New friends. A fragile hope. But fate has its own cruel timing. In a crowded pub, in a fleeting glance, Maya meets Sushant-a stranger who feels disturbingly familiar. Their paths cross again and again: at work, at home, in moments of vulnerability she never meant to share. He is calm where she is chaos, distant where she feels too much. Drawn together by unspoken tension, they orbit each other, never fully touching, never fully letting go. What begins as attraction slowly turns into something deeper-something terrifying. Misunderstandings, jealousy, manipulations, and hidden truths pull them apart just when they come closest. Maya tries to move on, crosses lines she shouldn't, and loses herself in confusion. Sushant, carrying scars and secrets of his own, keeps choosing silence over honesty-until silence becomes the most dangerous choice of all. Across cities and countries, through separation, regret, and longing, their lives keep colliding. Love follows them like a shadow-sometimes tender, sometimes destructive. And just when happiness feels possible, fate demands the highest price. This is not a fairytale romance. This is a story about obsession, healing, desire, sacrifice, and love that chooses to disappear so it doesn't destroy. A story where promises are made, broken, and remembered. Where love doesn't always stay-but leaves something behind. Some love stories don't end. They echo.Complete

SLEEPSONG (BoyxBoy)✔️
In the beginning... he was like a storm: violent, dangerous, and perfectly capable of destroying everything in his path. He'd gotten his hands on everything needed to pin me in his trap. My home... my belongings... my life -- he could have taken any of them at any time, and I wouldn't have been allowed to so much as let out a single protest. In the end, though, what he ended up wanting more than anything else in the world was something I swore up and down I wouldn't ever give him. Me. 🌺👑💛👑🌺 Aerin Vanderhill is uncertain of who he is on the inside and what he really wants out of life. For seventy-five years, he's lived very quietly in a small but futuristic American town, sleeping during the day and occasionally meandering around at night, basically just wondering at his own depressing existence. His family is long dead and everyone he once loved is gone, so for him, all that's left is the silence of being alone... of mimicking life because its there and he has it. Its boring, but what's an awkward, socially inept vampire who's only true form of human contact comes through playing online video games supposed to do? Nothing. That's right, nothing. Because doing something would make him spiral. That's why he sticks to his routine, no matter how pointless it feels to him. Unfortunately, his simple way of living comes to an immediate end when a dangerous, beast-like man with strange powers and even stranger origins comes gallivanting into town, hunting for the so-called "leech" who lulls his victims to sleep before preying on them. Aerin is soon certain he's going to be murdered, but fate might just have other plans. (This is a story featuring male only romance. LGBT+) TRAILER INSIDE!
